Varsity Swimmers
Hold First Practice
JP -------4
Successful Season Predicted
With Many Former Members
Back This Year
MISS BRADY IS COACH
'The first regular practice of the
Varsity swimming squad was held on
Monday, and although it is very early
in the season to make predictions, we
are tempted to prophesy a successful
season for the team. A large propor-
tion of last year's squad returned this
year and there is excellent material in
the Freshman class from which Miss
Brady should be able to develop some
�excellent performers. Also, a great
cau.e for general rejoicing is to be
found in the removal of the beam
from over the diving board. For
years this beam has glowered down
upon divers, limiting the height of
dives and doing untold damage to the
general morale. The college has re-
moved it and the opportunities for
improved diving are unlimited.
The only outside meet scheduled is
with Swarthmore on March 17, and
the team will point for that under the
coaching of Miss Brady, assisted by
Captain Jo Bronson and Susan Dan-
iels, manager. Although it is dan-
gerous to count on individuals so
early in the season and on the basis
of so few practices, it is possible to
form a tentative idea of the strength
in the various departments.
Frances Messimer is the greatest
loss suffered by the team over the
summer, but the threatened with-
drawal of Marion Mitchell, high scor-
er in last year's meet with Swarth-
m<J*e, will be a far heavier blow. Miss
Mitchell is at present convalescing
from an attack of pneumonia, and
the possibilities of her swimming this
year are very remote.
The 40-yard dash material is com-
posed almost entirely of Freshmen,
with Wylie, VanVechten, Stokes and
Porcher representing the class of '36.
Goldwasser, '34, has shown notable
Improvement in this event.
In the 80-yard dash there is Dan-
jpls, who placed second against
;Swarthmore, and Bronson, who took
third. In this event VanVechten and
\\'ylie are also showing up well.
In the 40-yard back stroke the best
performances so far have been turn-
ed in by Porcher, '36, while Jarrett
would be a definite contender with
more practice.
Waldenmeyer, '35, who took first
plat:? in the Swarthmore meet, is the
leading candidate in the 40-yard
breast stroke. Torrance, '33, who
placed third, is also back.
In the medley relay there are no
definite stars at any style, but several
people are well qualified in more than
fine stroke. C. Stone, '36, does both
the crawl and side stroke, and Hemp-
hill, '35, is reliable in both trudgeon
and side stroke. M. Righter, '34, was
� member of the squad who showed
up well in the trudgeon last year,
but as yet she has not attended a
practice this season. Other candidates
for places in the medley are Bill, '35;
Bridgeman, '36; Taylor, '35; Tyler,
; '33, and Page, '35.
-j&onson and Messimer were the
outstanding combination in the tan-
' demVc/awl last year, but with Messi-
mer. gone the honor passes to Daniels,
'34, and Meneely, '34. Bronson will
undoubtedly find a partner and get
into form soon.

Infirmary
There is not as yet an epi-
demic of the flu or grippe, but
all precautions should be tak-
en to prevent catching cold, and
the proper treatment should be
given all ailments, however
slight. Students are urged to
report even the earliest mani-
festations of a cold to the in-
firmary, so that it may be treat-
ed immediately. In staying
away from the infirmary stu-
dents not only endanger their
own health, but that of their
companions. Before exams the
health of the student body is
a very important consideration
and everyone should co-operate
with the infirmary in its at-
tempt to keep down colds and
other illness.

Varsity Swimmers
Hold First Practice
JP -------4
Successful Season Predicted
With Many Former Members
Back This Year
MISS BRADY IS COACH
'The first regular practice of the
Varsity swimming squad was held on
Monday, and although it is very early
in the season to make predictions, we
are tempted to prophesy a successful
season for the team. A large propor-
tion of last year's squad returned this
year and there is excellent material in
the Freshman class from which Miss
Brady should be able to develop some
�excellent performers. Also, a great
cau.e for general rejoicing is to be
found in the removal of the beam
from over the diving board. For
years this beam has glowered down
upon divers, limiting the height of
dives and doing untold damage to the
general morale. The college has re-
moved it and the opportunities for
improved diving are unlimited.
The only outside meet scheduled is
with Swarthmore on March 17, and
the team will point for that under the
coaching of Miss Brady, assisted by
Captain Jo Bronson and Susan Dan-
iels, manager. Although it is dan-
gerous to count on individuals so
early in the season and on the basis
of so few practices, it is possible to
form a tentative idea of the strength
